Forgive me if I'm a bit nervous about Gorgug this season. It's just that the last Zac Oyama pc was Colin Provolone, who was arguably one of his greatest D20 performances, if not the greatest.

Zac always does great with every pc he plays, but Colin was something else. He came out swinging with actions and words that were teeming with unspoken emotional baggage. The way Colin's presence affected the other pcs; there was this level of depth that I don't think I've seen in any of his other characters. It was understated and quiet in that signature "just a guy" way that he tends to be, while still captivating everyone instantly with just how raw it was.

Not to say we haven't seen emotional depth in Gorgug. It's just that, compared to the other Bad Kids, Gorgug's journey and progression as a character has been very... impersonal? Like, yes, he found his birth parents, and he found friends who appreciate him, and he faced his insecurities about his intelligence, and he navigated relationship troubles, and his trial through the claustrophobic bug-tunnels was a horrifically-uncanny parallel to how he's spent his entire life trying to make himself as small as possible.

But how much of that has actually changed him from the Gorgug we started with? I would agree that he's definitely happier with his life, given all the loving and supportive people that have been added to it when it used to be just him and his parents. And he's certainly grown into himself and become more self-assured in his abilities, even if he's still, and always will be, our anxious little guy. And there's nothing wrong with that. I've always liked how Gorgug was a representation of all the little things. The subtle acts and kindnesses that don't seem like much to most, but to some are everything.

We don't need another Bad Kid living in fear that their mouth could be shit-in at any moment. We've already got one-too-many.

All that being said, I just feel like Gorgug's personal story beats are much easier to sweep under the rug than everyone else's. He has the same soft and understated quality that Colin held, but they lack that extra oomph that pushed Colin over the edge from being just another guy in a series of dudes, to a character that the vast majority of us could not get out of our heads. He took someone who was anxious and softspoken, who ultimately never wanted to be violent— someone who is remarkably similar to Gorgug in many ways— and maintained that demeanor and core in Colin's character while still hitting us in the feels with character development at max velocity at every turn.

I think Zac gets better and better at this with every season that goes by. With each new character, there is always something that leaves me stunned in awe. And it's been, what, three? Four years since we last saw Gorgug?

I'm just,,, I'm cautiously optimistic but also going into a bit of a worry about what violence this man may inflict upon us

Anyone have any digital art tips or tutorials on how to create characters? I want to make some art for the Outsiders (both musical and movie) but I genuinely have no idea where to begin. I don’t have an iPad yet—that’s my goal at some point this year is to invest in a iPad so I can get procreate—but I have an Android tablet (it was the cheapest thing my mom could afford at the time even though we’re Apple family) with ibispaint on it. So if anyone has any tutorials or drawing tips when it comes to ibispaint or digital art pls help a girl out. Line art and layers trip me up but I plan on drawing Tilly Ace as a warm up cause I feel like her character is underrated and she needs more love in this fandom.

I'm so busy reading fics that I forget I'm a fic author myself😭 I get confused when I see I have something on my notifs only to find that it's just someone liking my fic✋

Ik this might sound stupid, but do you also read fics on this platform?

That's exactly why I don't read when I'm writing 😭 I'll get so distracted I forget I need to write and then I've used up all my energy reading I have nothing left for my writing.

My tbr fanfic list is eternally long. Like insanely long. I made a whole sideblog just to reblog stuff I want to read eventually.

Truly in the ‘freak out it’s so ugly’ phase of the comic I feel so stuuuuuuck

[lighthouseas]

s5 songs that i want. for me specifically. and that also don't get talked about enough as possibilities

(yes i know orinoco flow came out in 1988. but to be fair they've played a song that came out in the 1990s in the show so. anything is possible)

ITS YOU! YOU HAVE RANDOMLY APPEARED IN ME FEED, HII!

I am fully caught up on Redeath and Search Through The Stars, and im sad because not only is this fic almost over, but another unrelated long-shot fic I’ve been reading for a while is ALSO almost over. Send help I don’t know what im going to do with my life. Find more fics I guess.

aww this is such a sweet message to wake up to. and hey don't cry cos it's over smile cos it happened or whatever the quote is lmao <3

if it's any consolation, after 4 years spent in this au, i'm also at a bit of a loss on what to do now XD (probably i should catch up on rrr, which i'm guessing is the other fic you're talking about lol)

i'm gonna try to do some more original stuff, though, so feel free to stick around for more silly gay people fucking around and finding out XD

thinking about hag romance sparring 🤭 which I think is a very rare event bc god forbid astarion breaks a nail but in the off chances they do it becomes a matter of who fights more dirty bc shri’iia overpowers him in strength but he has faster reflexes and he’s very inclined to cheat. so then it becomes this fun little spar where it’s his dual daggers vs her one polearm, astarion always trying to disarm her by doing funky moves and distracting her vs shri’iia going for his shin and ankles so he trips over. then they forego the weapons and end up just rolling around the floor like kittens trying to pin each other down - which astarion does bc he has a secret third knife that he whips out and holds over her that forces her to yield and shri’iia’s like oh noooo u caught meeee. che..! whatever should I dooooo 🤭🤭😏😏 very quickly becomes foreplay and whoever was watching them spar is just like brother eughhhhh 😟😟😒😒🤢🚫🚫

[becauseplot]

alright so good news, i think i've (mostly) figured out the final outline for the new little dagger au fic. yippee! bad news though, the fic is now *checks notes* fifteen individual scenes/sections long. with the potential for more to be added as i go in order to fill in any major gaps. uh. hmm.

[arolesbianism]

Working more on the local group of Synchronized Light and hoo boy. There's smth wrong with these guys.

Do expect, as we use Tumblr more, to see the odd system ramble and roam. The call of the static, embracing the void, a flow of thought that calls like home.

The true unmasked. But only for some of us.

We are fine. Maybe. Perhaps.

But I am happy. Maybe. Perhaps.

What is happy?

did not write as much as i liked today but i made the playlist for the nanowrimo 2023 project that has a specific order to reflect the tones of the story and that's the closest i get to outlining before a draft so
